Instructions for the installer
2. INSTALLATION OF THE OVEN
The oven must be set up on a perfectly flat surface and left standing
free. Make sure to allow enough room at the back for easy access to the
terminal strip for connection of the power cable to mains.
Installation must be carried out by a qualified technician in compliance
with applicable regulations in force.
2.1 Electrical connection
Make sure that the power line voltage matches the specifications
indicated on the rating plate located to the rear of the oven. This rating
plate must never be removed.
The oven is equipped with a power
converter which is designed to adapt
power input to local current rating.
The converter is factory-set at 5450W.
If required, this value may be reduced
by adjusting the switch at the rear of
the oven by means of a screwdriver.
MIN = Minimum power (3650W).
MED = Medium power (4550W).
MAX = Maximum power (5450W).
The oven is supplied complete
with a H07RN-F three-core
supply cable for operation from a
230V power supply.
For operation from a 400V3N
power supply, the original cable
must be replaced and the
terminal board connections
modified accordingly. For access
to the terminal board, remove the
door located at the back of the
oven.
22
Instructions for the installer
The standard cable is of the three-core
3 x 2.5 mm
2
H07RN-F type.
For operation from a 400V3N
power
supply, replace the standard cable with
one of the H07RN-F type. The cross
section of the leads of the latter cable
must not be less than 1.5 mm
2
(5 x 1.5
mm
2
); the ground (yellow-green) of the
termination to be linked up to the oven
must be at least 20 mm longer.
If connecting by plug and socket, make sure to use a 25 Amp. three-core
plug or a 16 Amp. five-core plug in case of operation at 400V3N. Make
sure that plug and wall socket are of the same type and are in conformity
with regulations in force. Also check that the power supply line is
provided with adequate earthing. Avoid using adapters or shunters.
In case of permanent connection, ensure that power cable is equipped
with an easily accessible omnipolar switch fitted in proximity to the
apparatus and with a gap between contacts equal to or greater than
3 mm.
2.1.1 Safety thermostat
The oven is fitted with a safety device which trips in case of serious
malfunction. To reset, contact the nearest servicing centre.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons
or things caused by non-observance of the above prescriptions or by
interference with any part of the oven.

2.2 Levelling
Adjust the four feet so as to set the oven on a perfectly level plane. For
this purpose, loosen the lock nut and unscrew the foot. The range of
adjustment of the screw is 10 mm.
2.3 Steam exhaust pipe
An exhaust pipe is fitted on the top of the
oven to allow the discharge of steam
during cooking. Make sure that it's no
way obstructed and take care do not
crush it.

3. DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
All oven knobs and controls
are located on the side
panels.
THERMOSTAT KNOB
This permits selection of the ideal cooking temperature.
Rotate clockwise to the desired temperature (50° to 250°C).
Adjustment is progressive so that the oven also operates at
any intermediate value.
ORANGE LIGHT
When on, indicates that oven is heating up. When the set
temperature is reached, the light goes off. During the cooking
cycle, the light comes on and goes off various times signalling
that the temperature in the oven is being kept constant as per
the set value.
GREEN LIGHT
When off, indicates that timed cooking is in progress. When
on, indicates that the timed cooking cycle has been
completed.

4. USE OF THE OVEN
4.1 Warnings and general advice
When using for the first time, it is advisable to
heat up the oven to its maximum temperature
(250°C) for enough time to burn off any
possible oily manufacturing residues.
It should be borne in mind that when the oven
door is opened, the heating elements and the
fan are automatically switched off. This means
that, if the food being cooked needs to be
checked, it is best to leave the door open for as
short a time as possible in order to avoid the
temperature inside the oven from dropping too
much and thus compromising cooking results.
4.2 Oven lights
The lights inside the oven come on automatically upon turning the
thermostat knob.
4.3 Defrosting
TIMER KNOB
SET TO MANUAL
THERMOSTAT KNOB
SET TO VENTILATION
Moving air at ambient temperature causes frozen food to quickly thaw.
This type of thawing is ideal as the taste and appearance of the de-
frozen food, whether previously deep-frozen or frozen in the domestic
freezer, remain unaltered.
4.4 Pre-heating
Before cooking, it is advisable to pre-heat the oven to the desired
temperature for at least 15 minutes.

5.1 Cleaning stainless steel parts
To maintain stainless steel parts in perfect condition, clean regularly at
the end of the work day. Allow to cool first.
To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, always use only
specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
How to use: pour the product on a damp cloth and wipe the surface,
rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will
damage the surface.

7. ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR STEAM OVENS
7.1 General instructions
The hardness of the water used in the oven water reservoir for steaming
must not exceed 10-11°F. Use natural mineral water, or tap water that
has been treated with a water purification or softening system.
Water line connection
Connect the water intake valve on the back to the water supply using a
hose with a ¾ gas thread, making sure that the connections are secured
tightly.
If the water hose is new or has not been used for a long period of time,
run the water to ensure that the water is clear and free of impurities
before you connect it. This is a precautionary measure serving to avoid
the risk of the water causing blockage and thus damaging the appliance.
You are advised to supply the oven with a water pressure ranging
between a minimum of 50 KPa and a maximum of 500 KPa.
7.2 Description of the controls
All oven knobs and controls are located on the side panels.
TIMER KNOB
This knob serves for selecting manual oven use or the minute
minder with automatic oven switch-off at the end of cooking.
For manual control of the cooking time, turn the knob to the
symbol .
To set the cooking time, turn the knob clockwise. The
numbers 5 to 60 correspond to minutes. The regulation of the
time is progressive and all of the positions between the figures
indicated can be used as settings.
At the end of the cooking time, the knob automatically returns
to the 0 position, the oven switches off and an acoustic device
sounds.
THERMOSTAT KNOB
This knob serves for selecting the oven temperature most
suited to the foods to be cooked.
Selection is made by turning the knob clockwise to the desired
setting. The regulation of the temperature is progressive and
thus all of the positions between the figures can be utilised as
settings.

Additional instructions for steam ovens
GREEN INDICATOR LIGHT
When this light goes out it signals the beginning of the
cooking time.
When it comes on it signals the end of the cooking time.
ORANGE INDICATOR LIGHT
This light indicates that the oven is in the heating phase. It
switches off when the temperature set by the thermostat knob
has been reached inside the oven.
During oven use, the switching on and off of this light
indicates that the oven temperature is being kept constant.
STEAM EROGATION BUTTON
This serves for selecting the amount of steam most suited to
the foods to be cooked.
Steam continues to be supplied until the button is released;
once released the button automatically returns to the 0
setting.
N.B.: The oven thermostat knob must be set between 150°
and 250°C for steaming.

7.3 Use of the oven
Warnings and general suggestions
To prevent any problems that could be caused from the steam in the
oven, open the door in two stages: keep the door ajar (about 5-6 cm) for
4-5 seconds and then open it fully.
N.B. The fan, oven elements and steam supply are all disconnected
automatically when the door is opened.

No steam is created at temperatures lower than 150°C: temperatures
below 150°C give rise to condensation and consequent dripping.
Therefore, turn the thermostat knob to 150°C and wait until the (orange)
thermostat indicator light switches off before opening the steam supply.
